Coalition aircraft flew several close air support missions in Iraq on Dec. 27. USAF F-16s fired three precision-guided munitions against anti-Iraqi forces positions and vehicles in the vicinity of Hawijah. USAF F-15s and F16s provided CAS to coalition troops engaged with anti-Iraqi forces near Balad. The F-15s fired one PGM, striking an enemy mortar position, while the F-16s struck an enemy building with a PGM.
A massive contract to manage thousands of PCS moves failed because U.S. Transportation Command did not adequately oversee the results, according to the Government Accountability Office.
